What is a Scientist?

Our second graders can answer that question!
In Mrs. Bond's class, students used dragonfly tv from pbskids.org (http://pbskids.org/dragonflytv/
to research real scientists like Lesley Hamming who is a Glue-ologist, Lisa Parr who is a primate scientist,  
Jose Almirall who is a criminalist or Tyrone Hayes who is a frog scientist...
who knew there was such a thing???  
What a wonderful way to find out the different jobs there are available under the title "scientist"!  







Additionally, on career day we had some real life scientists visit us.  Some of them were:

Dana Schubert, Geologist

Brady Staples, Police Officer

Round Rock Fire Fighters
Lance Johnson, Farmer

Dr. Joseph Giasi, Orthodontist

Mr. Fleming, Contractor
